I am an occupational therapist (Philippines), an occupational scientist, and a health professions educator. My research expertise range from occupational therapy in mental and community health, occupational justice, health social sciences, and to interprofessional education and practice. I am devoted to ensure that occupational therapy scholarship impacts communities internationally. I am also currently working on my first book entitled "Occupational therapy in the Philippines: Theory, practice, and stories" to be published by Routledge in early 2024.
